When all the dust settled, everyone on the shore looked nervously at the lake that gradually returned to calm.
The layer masters of the World Tree are all above level 30. Legendary monsters are terrifying existences that are daunting even to adventurers of the Mad Dragon level. Only by forming a strong team and formulating a careful plan can we defeat them. The crusade may be successful.
However, the man who claimed to be a hunter just now has shown enough power to compete with the legend. If he can really defeat the terrifying Lord of the Fifth Floor underwater...then he will definitely have the strength above the legend, and even Come to the myth!
Can they witness the birth of a myth? Like a year ago?
"There is movement!" Zamp noticed the unnatural disturbance in the lake. Everyone looked at it and saw the huge crab head of the Lord of the Fifth Floor slowly emerging from the water...
"He failed?" Everyone felt like a basin of cold water was pouring on their hearts. Although this was a perfectly legitimate result, as an adventurer, who doesn't expect a miracle to happen?
"Next, it's our turn!" Ryan picked up the meteor hammer: "Now is the time when the layer leader is at his weakest. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
Everyone else also showed off their weapons. Whether it was to complete the mission or to rescue Zhang Lang, who didn't know whether he was alive or dead, they had to at least kill this big monster first!
However, before they could prepare, the crab head had already flown out of the water, flew all the way to the shore, and landed steadily.
There's only one crab head... No, there's a person holding it underneath.
"Hunter...Hunter?"
Everyone was shocked when they saw it clearly: "Did you really... kill the floor leader?"
Zhang Lang nodded, didn't say much, jumped off the fifth floor with the crab head in hand, drew a zigzag line in mid-air, and jumped towards the shade city below.
Many dragon-level adventurers who were left on the fifth floor looked at each other in confusion. At this time, Rakir did not forget to sarcastically tease Xun Yiming: "Don't you like to challenge the strong the most? Why didn't you stop him just now? Is it because you were worried about your girlfriend? Is it too embarrassing to lose in front of you?"
Xun Yiming snorted coldly, but before he could say anything, Weirli scolded him on his behalf: "Compared with other people's affairs, you should care more about your own safety!"
As she spoke, she pointed to the severed chelon that was still inserted by the lake: "Mr. Raqil was almost stabbed to death!"
Zhang Lang carried the huge head of the Lord of the Lake back to Shade City. This cool appearance attracted the attention of passers-by.
The World Tree can be said to be the place with the most vigorous life energy and the most powerful monsters on Qiongluo Island. The floor master of each floor is synonymous with terror. As the most difficult black mission, it is also well-known in Shade City. Even if most adventurers have never seen the real ones, they have at least seen the images of these legendary monsters from various descriptions, portraits and even photos.
"Then...should he be the floor leader of the fifth floor?"
"The Lord of the Lake?"
"No way, I heard that thing made even Ryan of the Dragon Riders fail!"
"Ryan is nothing! To deal with this kind of monster, even if he brings his thirteen captains, it may not be easy! I heard that in order to complete the mission, he is now studying to get back together with his old sweetheart Jessica, and wants to annex the Red Moon Adventure Group Well... after all, he is just a champion warrior, far from a legend, how can he possibly deal with the floor leader."
"Hey, you are so awesome, how come you are a Leopard level?"
"What you're saying is that to comment on whether the food is delicious, I have to be a cook?"
People on the street were talking a lot, and no one knew who started it. More and more adventurers began to follow Zhang Lang. Maybe they also want to follow the association to see if the head of this layer's leader is authentic, maybe they want to witness the birth of the legend, or maybe they just want to sit back and watch the excitement.
By the time Zhang Lang walked to the door of the association, hundreds of adventurers were already following behind him.
Zhang Lang turned a blind eye to these followers and entered the guild carrying a huge crab head on his own.
As he stepped in, the adventurers in the guild also let out bursts of exclamations, but they soon became quiet, and everyone consciously made way for a passage.
Zhang Lang took over the task at noon, and it was not yet four o'clock in the afternoon, and Murong Wei hadn't gotten off work yet.
"Hand in the mission." Zhang Lang walked to the stage and dropped the huge crab head on the ground. The sharp spikes damaged the floor again.
"This is... the floor master?" As a staff member, Murong Wei had seen the portraits and photos of the floor master more than once and could recognize them at a glance. But she didn't dare to judge easily when it came to a black mission.
"Wait a minute...I need to ask an expert to identify it."
After that, she exited the backstage and went upstairs. After a while, two people followed her down.
One of them is an old man with white beard and hair, wearing a mage's robe, and the other is a woman in her thirties with a capable temperament and a piece of smoking cork in her mouth.
The cork was a specialty of the second floor of the World Tree, and was called wood smoke. In the city, Zhang Lang often saw people holding it in their mouths, just like smoking cigarettes.
The old man walked up to the crab head and seemed to cast a detection spell. After a while, he turned around and nodded to the woman holding wood smoke: "The loot is fine!"
The woman's eyes lit up when she heard this. She put down her cigarette and put it out. She walked up to Zhang Lang and bowed slightly: "Hunter...sir, right? Let me introduce myself. My name is Nangong Li. I am the person in charge of the Adventurer's Guild in Shade City. If it's convenient, , I hope you can go upstairs to talk."
After a day of adventure, Zhang Lang also had a basic understanding of the world. The Adventurer's Guild was founded by the Nangong family, and Qiongluo Island was also discovered by the Adventurer's Guild. Therefore, it can be said that the cities on Qiongluo Island are all owned by the Nangong family. property... This woman claims to be the head of the union, but in fact she is no different from the city lord... or even the lord.
Getting help from local snakes should improve hunting efficiency.
Zhang Lang nodded and followed Nangong Li to the second floor.
It wasn't until his figure disappeared into the stairwell that the adventurers in the lobby on the first floor breathed a sigh of relief and started talking again...
Nangong Li's office is very spacious. Different from the slightly rough style of other buildings in the city, the decoration here is quite elegant, and many magical biological specimens collected from various layers of the World Tree are also displayed.
Zhang Lang sat on the sofa, and Nangong Li sat opposite. He put a unique tea into the teapot. As the hot water brewed the tea, a wonderful fragrance spread throughout the office.
"The new leaves from the second layer of the World Tree, fried with psychedelic flowers, can make people happy and relaxed, and have no toxic side effects on the body..." The female city owner smiled and poured a glass for Zhang Lang: "This is something you can't drink anywhere else. Wonderful thing arrived.”
"Let's get straight to the point!" Zhang Lang was not in the mood to drink tea: "What do you want from me?"
Nangong Li was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "The styles of masters are indeed different... In this case, I won't beat around the bush."
"I have heard from Xiaowei about your situation, but now I want to confirm. Is this the leader of the fifth layer of the World Tree really hunted by you alone?"
Zhang Lang nodded: "Dragon Knight Adventure Group, the silver-haired man named Kidman, and several of his companions have all seen it. You can ask them."
"Then you are at least a legendary powerhouse." Nangong Li nodded with satisfaction, "I hope you can help us conquer the World Tree again!"
